My career is diverse, with over 19 years of experience in directing events and experiences of all sizes. I am an energetic, customer oriented, borderline obsessive attention to detail in hospitality operations and sales. My exceptional ability to understand key business objectives; develop, negotiate, and execute client program relationships has given me the opportunity work with diverse teams within organizations and globally.

I slept and dreamt that life was joy.

I awoke and saw that life was duty.

I worked,

and behold, duty was joy.
